Producing a poster using using the plotter in B9

Introduction

This document describes how to produce a poster using software available on the PWF and the A0 plotter in B9. You can always obtain the latest version of this document from: http://www.arch.cam.ac.uk/comp/ac083/

Getting started

The single most important thing about producing posters on the plotter is to leave a 10mm margin all the way around your poster. Templates for A0 and A1 posters are provided below in landscape and portrait orientation. The templates are available in CorelDraw and LaTeX formats. Illustrator and Powerpoint users should ensure that that the paper size is set correctly and the appropriate margin specified.
